@klonky yes but how to know if the assertEquals() method is correctly implemented?
-
@tomabolt It's tested quite well
-
@tomabolt you compare the result it gives for some params with what you know is the correct result, e.g. for 3 and 4 do assertEquals(3, 4) == false and do the same thing for various use cases and fringe cases.
-
@Bikonja yep, so when testing a test framework you can't rely on a test framework. So bad
-
@tomabolt you can rely on a different testing framework :D
-
@Bikonja and if this test framework rely on jUnit, you're fucked (:
-
@tomabolt well that would clearly cause a stack overflow exception :D
-
@Bikonja you can only trust yourself.
Question I ask myself : does jUnit is tested with jUnit? What if there is a bug? How to know if the bug is from the framework or the tests cases :o
